Re: The Mumbles
Glad you like my curtains, I made them myself. 

Re: The Mumbles
Can't have taken as long to make the curtains as it did to sing the song? Or can it? 

Re: The Mumbles
Cheeky, 24 feet of material and pencil pleats. Took quite a while.
Re: The Mumbles
But not 10'32".
Love the pleats but that's skirting the issue and now I must draw to a close.
Patient: Doctor, I think I'm turning into a pair of curtains
Doctor: Pull yourself together.
BOOM BOOM

Re: The Mumbles
I know for a fact that Leonard Cohen is heavilly into curtains. In fact he even sings about them in his songs. "Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn"
Re: The Mumbles
Which raises te pertinent question - what were they doing kissing curtains in te first place? VEeeeeeery strange!
Re: The Mumbles
My guess is that they were so pleased with how the curtains turned out that they just had to kiss them. I was quite pleased with mine, saved myself a fortune by making them myself, but I've never actually kissed them. I have had friends call by wanting to touch them though, now that they are famous and on YouTube.
